Lost in translation? Considering user needs in reporting clinical microbial genomics results

As pathogen sequencing plays an increasingly large role in the clinical environment, we must carefully consider how the results of a clinical genomics/metagenomics are communicated to stakeholders, including clinicians and public health officials. We have adopted methodologies and strategies from the field of information visualization and implemented user-centred design processes in an effort to make the genomic data we produce more intuitive and interpretable to our end users.
